Klan, .. O The novelty and broadened outlook of kinder- garten gave sixty darling little flve-year-olds a chance to prove how dauntless they were in the face of new horizons to be conquered, when back in '33 our trusting parents thrust us into the hands of Miss Harriet Hall. With her help, we managed to keep our noses wiped, our shoe laces tied, our garters secure and ourselves from catch- ing pneumonia until we were old enough to be trusted. The three r's came gradually as we passed through the hands of Miss Craft, Miss Ma- lone, Miss Luney, Miss Hoffman, Miss McQuigg, Miss Gilchrist and so on through the grades. As Brownies and Fairies, we worked and playedg we took our bruises and scratches, our measles and pink eyeg our A's and our D's like little ladies and gentlemen, and pushed on toward higher levels. We remember when Marjorie Johnson was Sleeping Beauty down in 2nd grade and had to be awakened by the kiss of the prince, Eddie Pet- ers. Then in 3rd grade we were enthusiastic over moving pictures of our own making. In 4th grade we embarked upon a couple of theatrical productions, an operetta in which Chuck Wear- mouth sang. I Am Robin Red Breast and the rest of us served as tulips or black crows, and ln a health play in Mrs. l..yon's room, some of us wore crepe paper oranges and carrots and had to chase away King Dirt in order to save the poor weakling child. We did it, too, though Mary Edna got tangled in the curtain cords twice in a row, which was funny to the audience but painful to all of us on the stage. Fifth grade in the new building was quite wonderful with Miss Bremner as one of our fav- orite teachers. In her class we put on a marlon- ette show, Jack and the Beanstalk. Fifth grade was also important because it was the first time the class really got together. That is, the mid- year students took an extra half year in order for the others to catch up, as the school was doing away with mid-year classes. In one of Miss Barkley's classes, dramatizing history scenes brought a wild disorder one day Education is a life work, and not a matter to be crowded into n few years. -A. Tourgec when the boys all decided to reenact the world war. Mr. Sewell finally calmed them down. It was about this time that thumb tacks as a class diversion came into wide use. In Sth grade our first man teacher, Mr. Luvaas, was very popular. Betty Brandt, Barbara Tamm and Norma Schultz were some of the chief mis- chief makers. Mr. Luvaas taught the girls the rules of girls' basketball and there was stiff com- petition between girls and boys for the courts at recess. Margaret Christiansen excelled at jacks . She also provided many with candy from her ever-present supply. Georgene Sievert became famous for her paper dolls. In junior high, we learned that going to school was tougher than we had supposed. Most of us really had to get down and dig! We were grow- ing up. Miss Goodman taught us history and kept us disciplined. Mr. Jensen provided interest- and sometimes excitement! Billy Norelius was our first class president. The class doubled in size as country and parochial school pupils entered ninth grade. We discovered that Norma Ecklund could lick an algebra problem quicker than almost anyone. Tommy Saggau played the piano for our regular Thursday singing periods. Mary Jo Gatens, Pat McDonnell, Phyllis Bray and Betty Losch led junior high in cheering for some very tlne teams-the boys were undefeated in football, basketball, and baseball. As sophomores, we may have been dumb and unimportant, but we didn't think so. Tom Sag- gau, Phyllis Bray and Mary Laub represented the class in the all-high-school play, Footloose. Our junior class play, Aaron Slick from Punkln Creek, was a big success. Wilmer Denker played the trumpet and Carolyn Calvin sang in the school orchestra. Bernie Saggau, Tom O'Meara and Betty Brandt were also outstanding vocalists. We 83 seniors are still history-in-the-making , but this much can be said of our senior year, The year is so full of a number of things, I'm sure we should all be as happy as kings.
